Comparative adjectives
We use comparative adjectives to show change or make comparisons. Comparative adjectives are used in sentences where two nouns are compared, or show change:
Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).
For example:
My bike is larger than my little brother’s.
I ran faster than my friend.
Superlative adjectives
A superlative adjective expresses the extreme highest or lowest degree of a quality. Superlative adjectives are used in sentences where a subject is compared to a group of objects. We use ‘the’ with superlative adjectives.
Noun (subject) + verb + the + superlative adjective + noun (object).
Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world.
I am the oldest of three sisters.
I am the shortest in my family.
